@emptywheel Interesting. Did he not have enough to pay his phone bill? Couldn't find any news stories about this with basic searches

@twiterisforfite He had a friends and family plan w/his Central Asian buddies. One of them failed to pay the bill. -
@emptywheel Thanks, I sort of remember hearing about that. And availability of cheap prepaid is irrelevant to the NSA/surveillance issue -
@twiterisforfite Not really. They're not getting the records from the pre-paid companies, they're getting it from backbone providers. -
@emptywheel Oh, well that could change in the future. I meant that Dzhokhar Tsarnaev didn't have prepaid phone (until 1 day before) either -
@emptywheel A lot of people feel they are more at risk from prejudices of other people than the government. Fired for Facebook comments etc.

@emptywheel: Coats is talking about using it after the attack. -
@ericgeller Yes. But a 4-day phone record is not very useful. (And anon leakers say it'd be useless anyway, as T-Mobile phone.) -
@emptywheel: True, true.
